Interesting trivia. On another note, I find it interesting that companies are employing human mascots. This guy, Doug, and Jake from State Farm, Flo from Progrssive, Shaq for The General insurance. I guess it's working. Either that or the commercials are so vapid as to be memorable.

Would he command the cult following Trump has? Up for debate.
Ken (@oceanpinesguy.bsky.social) reply parent
Everyone knows he’s not well. Whether he’s on death’s door is another issue (one can only hope). Certainly he would never be able to let Vance be a stand in under any circumstances.
Ken (@oceanpinesguy.bsky.social)
I wonder if Vance will command the same type of cultish following Trump does????

My thoughts exactly. If he’s anti-Jew he was in the wrong place. Just another whack job with easy access to guns and a desire to kill.
Ken (@oceanpinesguy.bsky.social) reply parent
Yep. School starts and the shootings begin. Excuses will flood the media. Mental illness. Yadda. Yadda. Yadda. No one will do anything about the easy access to guns.

You’re right, Reality. At this point in our history we will need massive solidarity that make things right. This includes exercising our 2nd Amendment rights. I’ve really never advocated violence but desperate times call for desperate measures.

Thanks for the tip about the speed. I’ll have to check that out. I started an audiobook by Kathy Reichs. One of the Bones series. The voice acting is markedly different and better.

I'm missing all the speculation about the cause of the bruising on Trump's hand. What do you think is causing that?

Trump needs to get in shape himself. Shaming people is his thing though.

Cozies, some non-fiction. I have an audio memoir which is a genre I don’t appreciate that much. It’s read by the author. It’s about growing up in a super Christian cult with lots of graphic improprieties. The voice is flat and misses a lot of grammatical inflections.

I get where some mystery writers need to set up situations that don’t ring true in the details. Some really ask you to suspend your disbelief… a lot.

I’m trying to get into audiobooks but having a little bit of a hard time. The voice acting on the books I’ve gotten so far is pretty terrible.

Although it’s overplayed on MASN, I really like the PNC commercial where the parents explain they have sold the naming rights to their kids, “You know, like stadiums do. Kids are so expensive nowadays.”

Eat less, exercise more. Yet, I’m told exercise is not the key, it’s the eating part. Yet everything bad for me is delicious. Especially the Hendricks and tonic.

Coming from a male who has been "off the market" for more than a quarter century. Widowed 2.5 years ago. It is this type of thread that really makes on think if it's worth it at all to even try. I wouldn't know what to do or how to do it. Meanwhile, I felt judged the whole time about it all.

People are saying Trump has humiliated himself and the country. Two thoughts: a person with no shame or moral compass cannot be humiliated. Our country is already on the back burner.

Quick thought on Gavin Newsom. He probably figures he'll never be president, so he's showing Dems how it's done. "Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose." Go, Gavin, go.

Some people say that fascism will always fail..eventually. In the meantime millions suffer and die. My take: not worth it. Just as ordinary Germans fell in line behind Hitler because of his false promises, millions or ordinary Americans are falling in line behind Trump. The end is not near.

How did we get to a point where anyone anywhere can harass someone else in public? Where did civility go? Are parents really raising their children to be like this? I hope the teen gets millions.
